Is there a command to ping subnet windows?

 

 You can use one of the following approaches to get it done,

1.     You can either download an application like Net Ping 2.2 for this purpose. It pings all 255 IPs in the subnet simultaneously.

(Link: http://www.softpedia.com/get/Network-Tools/IP-Tools/NetPing.shtml).

2.     You can also do it manually by checking the subnet IPs and pinging them one by one using Windows command prompt giving following command;

 Ping 1.1.1.1 (this will be the ip to ping) it will send some packets and checks the reply with time-to-live (ttl) or if you want to send indefinite packets then use ping 1.1.1.1 (IP) –t.
